Hello Everybody,

I'm kind of new to GameGuru (Okay well not kind of I am), and I was wondering a couple things, I'll list them to make it easier.

1. Is there a way for me to make either voices that explain how to play my game, or to make signs that the player can read?

2. I am wanting to make it so that the player must kill all entities in my level in order to proceed to the next level and I was wondering if that is possible, if it is please explain how.

Thank you in advance,
enick

P.S. I'm not sure if this si the correct section to post this if not can somebody please direct me to the right section of the forum.

1. see what can be done here. by opening thebigescape map file . press file open the scroll for it.
Look in the audiobank folder the is a folder called stories. in there are the ways you can set it up. Look in the big escape folder. this is the format your want. look at the properties of the sound zones for the scripts to call.

Call it by scripts. See the script section on how to do this.

Custom objects can be made and used in the editor, X file or 3ds file for the mesh and .DDS textures for the mapping.
Static and animated objects can be made for this engine.

There are documents in the game guru/documents folder explaining this more.

This is possible buy the use of LUA scripting. again see examples in the script thread.

Is this in my files or from within the game engine itself? Because currently I am right here in my files
http://prntscr.com/77xyms and have the game engine open as well.

the grey transparent outlines with the white dots in them are the sound zones.
Click on the white dot and choose properties.

in the property panel on the left the is a field called sound0. that is where you can choose vocal files to play when the player walk into this sound zone. giving instructions or playing music.

Look around this map and see how it is set up. this is a good example on how to set one up.

Okay thank you, As for the having to kill all AI entities in the level before moving on you said those would have to be custom AI's?

yes at this point AI does not have the objective field in it to set these there.

Post a question in the script board, and somebody will respond. There is a search link at the top of each thread page where you can enter in search term to search for. it will list out any thread that has the search term in the title.

this can be done only thru dynamic entities which glow green instead of red when you pass the pointer over them.

you would need to acquire one. there is not a built in music editor.
there are many free ones available on the web, search them out and choose one that can export .wav or .ogg files. .ogg files are compressed wav file. run a little better in the game engine.
